It just fails 100% of the time and says "call us". This year, as I had not been asked nor contacted about a set up for an annual appointment, I was penalized. I found that when I needed a refill of a prescription, they refused because I had not been in "on schedule", even though I had an appointment already scheduled, but set for 6 weeks in the future.

Honestly, this is one of two doctors in my entire life I would not recommend. I had…read morebladder/urethral pain like a UTI but I also have interstitial cystitis. After taking antibiotics, nothing was getting better so I figured it probably is a IC flare and not a UTI. I was able to make an appointment quickly. The front desk staff etc were very friendly. But, when this doctor walked in, it was "what can I do for you?" No hi, or what brings you in today. I told her about the IC to which she replied "I don't really believe in that diagnosis". I knew right there that the visit was done. When I questioned why I treatments worked many years ago when I was diagnosed by a urogynecologist, I basically got crickets. I just kept getting told you're fine. You're feeling fine, you're fine. Ummm no, I'm not fine. Just because I feel ok today is one thing but I felt like crap the last week and a half and in pain. So a cery short visit got me no where except less money in the checking account due to a copay. I got no answers, just kept being told I don't have to worry about anything, that in fine. Mind you, I gave a urine sample she told me we do not have to culture because I'm fine. If I have UTI type symptoms, you think they'd tear it, right?! Well, I wasn't fine the next day. After a couple more days I went to urgent care. Met an amazing doctor who was so informative. They did all sorts of testing to rule out other diagnosis plus they did a urine culture to see specifically what strain of bacteria it might be, if so. Three days later, the culture came back. Turns out I had a very bad infection of a highly resistant to antibiotics bacterial strain. So the urgent care doctor at that time prescribed me the correct antibiotics for that strain. They did not want to give me antibiotics until the actual culture came back, which makes sense. I am pissed because I could have already been treated for a UTI a week ago if this urologist would test my urine instead risking my life because the infection could have gone to my kidneys or made me septic. I do not recommend this doctor at all. Clearly she cannot do her job.

Originally the receptionist was patient and replied, "We have no doctor by that name". I then realized that "MM" was a Nurse Practitioner, not a physician. I tried calling back 3 different times and my call went to voicemail each time. I then used a different phone and what do you know, she answered! I told this same receptionist, "I apologize for calling again but the person I was looking for is actually a nurse practitioner, not a physician. Do you have an a Nurse Practitioner by the name of MM?" This receptionist [unknown name but her voice sounded of Indian descent] replied, "We don't have nurse practitioners here! I already told you, there is no one here by that name!" and hung up on me!!!! Was that really necessary? So, concerning my 2nd, 3rd and 4th call, she must've seen my number coming through and chose not to answer. When she saw a number from "a different caller", then realized it was me and was extremely rude. WHY? I guess office personnel these days have "the right" to determine which incoming calls they answer and which ones are left for voicemail. To me, it is very sad that people are able to and chose to abuse others as a result of technology.
